Setting Floe boat lift bunks for G21?

[mlsurfco]

Does anyone know how far their bunks are off the crossbeam on a Floe boat lift for their G21?

My dealer is setting mine up for the boat this weekend if the weather permits. Once it's set up, I'll get you a measurement.

Thanks enzo... Mine gets here on weds and I want to have bunks ready to go. Too much else to do before dropping her in the water.

Anyone else out there know?

Just so I am understanding you correctly, the "bunks" are the padded runners that the hull sits on, correct? And FYI mine is a VSD-8000.

Yep, that is what I mean by the bunks. I set mine at 14.5" and am trying to see how it works today. Will keep you posted.

Mine is scheduled to get set up tomorrow (Friday) at 5:30 pm

are either of you trying to set it as low as possible...basically setting the frame on the lake bottom? i'm considering making a switch to a floe vsd8000, but first want to be 100% sure on minimum depth requirements.

I set mine at 15" and am stuck on the lift as I type. Waiting for a couple neighbors to help.

Enzo - how far apart are your bunks also?

There is another thread about this where I specifically asked the dealer and even provided pictures. If you can't find it, let me know and Ill find it for you But a summary is you can set it until it bottoms out on the lake. so minimum depth is the width of the center beam plus the heights of the runners.

Ill let you know tomorrow night, but 15" seems pretty close together. Stay tuned....

It looks like I am in ~38" of water. With draft of 25", I am losing 13" to feet, cross bar, etc.

Iron - I might have a VSD 8k for sale locally

Floe dealer just left. Looks like mine are about 43" to 44" apart. The boat is up in the lift so a little difficult to get exact figure. My day blew up on me and I'm racing. I'll measure again without the boat in and confirm that.

[enzo thecat]

Ok. Official width measurement from center of runners is 43".

Can you measure vertical height also? Thank you!!!

What do you mean? Please clarify And I wont be back to the lake home until Friday.
